Hello guys. I've been reading this thread for quite a while now. But only as a silent reader. Today I finally decided to break my silence and to join India Forums as a new member :)
Maybe I should start introducing my person, so that you guys know, with whom you will deal with in the future.
My name is Ayda and I'm from Turkey. I'm a huge Bollywood fan and also a huge fan of Indian serials. This interest finally leads me here, where I found out that turkish serials are also watched in India nowadays. That was quite suprising for me because I don't know that turkish serials are also shown in India now.
Fatmagul'un Sucu Ne (Or Fatmagul as it is called in India) is one of my most favourite turkish serials ever. That's the reason, why I started reading all these threads regarding to Fatmagul. I just wanted to know, how people from India would react to turkish shows and what they would think about them. I really love, how you guys are so passionate about the series and the actors. Although I know everything about Fatmagul I still find it interessting to read your analysis about events and characters in the story. It's just like I am watching the show again through reading your long analysis :)
My favourite actors from Turkey are Engin Akyurek and Ilker Kaleli. You guys should definitely also watch Ilker. He is a great actor. Zindagi Channel should think about "Poyraz Karayel" as a new turkish serial. Ilker Kaleli is playing the main role "Poyraz" in the show.
Regaring to Engin, I can only say that you guys are totally right loving him. He is one of the most versatile actors in Turkey. His outward apperance, his acting skills and most importantly his character as a person makes him very special. He really is one if the actors, who has not changed over the years through his fame. He definitely is one in a million :)
Regarding to the turkish actresses, I love Asli Enver the most. She is a very good actress and has a natural beauty. You guys should watch her in the serial "Suskunlar", or "Kayip". Those serials are brilliant and Asli is superb in them.
From Bollywood I mostly love Fawad Khan and Shahrukh Khan. I've discovered the world of Bollywood through SRK, so my love for him is obvious.
But my new love in Bollywood definitely is Fawad Khan. He is such a brilliant actor. I loved his performance in Kapoor and Sons. He was the best part in the whole film. He reminds me of Engin Akyurek. Both are good looking, brilliant actors and smart people :)
So I've found it quite funny, that so many people in this thread also have seen similarites between both actors.
Regarding to actresses I like Deepika Padukone, Anushka Sharma and from the elder generation Kajol and Rani Mukherjee. :)
If you have any questions regarding to turkish translations etc. you can ask me.
And here are some important turkish sentences and words for you, so that you know the basics in turkish serials.
